Step 2: Follow the Oklahoma Business Naming Rules
When naming businesses, you must follow the naming guidelines for Oklahoma, which depend on the type of business structure you have.
Oklahoma Naming Rules for Limited Liability Companies (LLCs):
- Your name must include the phrase “limited liability company” or one of its abbreviations (e.g., LLC or L.L.C.).
- Your name cannot include words that could confuse your LLC with a government agency (e.g., FBI, Treasury, State Department, etc.).
- Restricted words (e.g., Bank, Attorney, University, etc.) may require additional paperwork and a licensed individual, such as a doctor or lawyer, to be part of your LLC.
- Your name must be distinguishable from any other Oklahoma limited liability company, corporation, limited liability partnership, or limited partnership.
Oklahoma Naming Rules for Corporations:
- Your name must contain one of the following words (or an abbreviation): association, company, corporation, club, foundation, fund, incorporated, institute, society, union, or syndicate. It can also include words of the same meaning in a different language.
- Your name must be distinguishable from any existing business in the state. This includes Oklahoma reserved names. We will help with this step in the search for your business name section below.
- You must have the approval to include the following words: savings and loan, building and loan, savings association, and savings bank.
